Another bloody stickie! If you spot a classic and take a shot please put it here rather than start a fresh thread. I'll start, I spotted this Lotus Elan parked in Catherine Street here in Waterford. Had'nt seen it before. Today I also saw 2 Silver Clouds, and 2 Jenson Interceptors but they were moving and so was I :D Mike.

Today i saw more than one classic, took a picture of two of them...

first 1969 Chevy Chevelle SS (yes, the blue one...) on the way to Cork airport, in Belgooly MG B GT.. old VW bus in Kinsale and then:

Merc (James Fort) in pretty good condition (two litre with manual transmission)

1928 Rolls-Royce something... South Mall/Grand Parade, Cork

After I took the second two pictures I waved at him (I was in my old car) but there was no response... Probably this car is too good or something, dunno what is the reason... whateva boi...

I think its a 20HP
The horizontal slats are correct for that model, Phantoms would have vertical slats

That silver 123 Merc was around Cobh for a while, the guy who owns it is only interested in cheap tax and will end up wrecking this one too unfortunately.
